The most popular account of Valentines Day dates back to Roman times when the Roman Emperor Claudius П decided that single men made better soldiers so he outlawed marriage. A priest named Valentine defied the new laws and married lovelorn couples in secret. When he was found out he was thrown into jail. Legend has it that in jail he fell in love with the jailors daughter and his last note to her before he was executed read “From Your Valentine” which has remained to this date.
